The 5.3MP USB2.0MU530-BI is part of our back-illuminated CMOS camera series. Back-illuminated CMOS sensors provide higher quantum-efficiency by moving the photo-diode layer in front of the electronic components, increasing photon-absorption. This translates to less image-noise and dark-current while maintaining high speeds.

The included software for Windows, Mac, and Linux provides an imaging solution for photography and videography. The Windows (XP/Vista/7/8/10) version provides an extensive toolset for image-processing and measurements. A lite version of the application is provided for Mac and Linux.

Captures both video and images with independent preview and capture resolutions

Exposure

Automatic and manual modes with gain adjustment

White Balance

Automatic and manual modes with color-temperature and tint adjustment

Color Adjustment

Adjustments for hue, saturation, brightness, contrast, and gamma

Compositing

Photo-stitching for combining multiple images across the X and Y axes into a large image, covering a larger field. Extended-Depth-of-Field (focus-stacking) for combing layers of focus to increase depth.

Measuring

Calibrate the software using a reference target, then take accurate measurements using varying shapes, lines, arc, etc.. Multiple magnifications can be stored for an easy workflow.
